I chose life

many times,

pulling back from the brink

on a couple of occasions,

choose to be who I am

rather be someone I am not…

I chose washing machine, after washing machine

after one domestic appliance after another

and still I hammer them into the ground,

I choose not to own many

material items, never been swayed by a name

but always refused to anything made by Sharp

in the house as it would engender support

for Manchester United, I choose to not do that
